A new path for pedestrians and cyclists is open between Craigneuk and New College Lanarkshire’s Motherwell Campus at Ravenscraig.
New tree planting, together with habitat management of the new and existing woodland areas, will enhance the habitat for Yellow Bird’s-Nest and other protected species. “This new path and the first part of the route which opened last year allows people to walk, cycle or wheel between the facilities at Ravenscraig, the communities of Craigneuk and beyond,” said Councillor Alex McVey, Convener of North Lanarkshire Council's Enterprise and Fair Work Committee.
“This investment is critical to ensuring local communities in the vicinity, and surrounding it, have high quality, sustainable alternatives to car travel and better accessibility to facilities, jobs and all amenities available.”
